    Lab Manual: MongoDB Installation

    Objectives

     Install MongoDB on your machine.


     Set up the environment.
     Verify the installation.

    Prerequisites

     Basic knowledge of command line usage.


     Administrative privileges on your computer.

    Installation Steps

    Step 1: Download MongoDB

    1. Visit the MongoDB Download Center: Go to MongoDB Community Server.


    2. Select Your Version: Choose your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux).
    3. Download the Installer: Click the download link for the version you want.

    Step 2: Install MongoDB

    For Windows:

    1. Run the downloaded installer (.msi file).


    2. Follow the installation wizard:
    o Choose "Complete" installation.
    o Check the option to install MongoDB as a Service (recommended).
    3. Click "Finish" once the installation completes.

    For macOS:

    1. If you have Homebrew installed, run:

    bash
    brew tap mongodb/brew

    brew install mongodb-community

    2. Otherwise, you can download the .tgz file and follow the instructions to extract and set it up
    manually.
    For Linux (Ubuntu example):
    Open the terminal.
    Run the following commands:

    wget -qO - https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-<version>.asc | sudo apt-key add -


    echo "deb [ arch=amd64 ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu focal/multiverse amd64
    packages" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-<version>.list
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org

    Step 3: Create the Data Directory

    MongoDB stores its data in /data/db by default. Create this directory and set permissions:

    # For macOS/Linux
    sudo mkdir -p /data/db
    sudo chown `id -u` /data/db

    For Windows, you may skip this step as MongoDB will create the necessary directories
    automatically.

    Step 4: Start MongoDB

     Windows: Start the MongoDB service using the command prompt:

    net start MongoDB


    macOS/Linux: Start MongoDB with:
    mongod

    Step 5: Verify the Installation

    1. Open another terminal or command prompt.


    2. Start the MongoDB shell by typing:

    Mongosh

    1. You should see the MongoDB shell prompt (>) if it starts correctly.

    Step 6: Basic MongoDB Commands

    Once in the MongoDB shell, you can try the following commands:

    1. Create a new database:

    use myTestDB
    2. Create a new collection and insert a document:
    db.myCollection.insertOne({ name: "Alice", age: 25 })
    3. View documents:
    db.myCollection.find().pretty()
    Conclusion

    You have successfully installed MongoDB and performed basic operations! Explore more
    features and commands as you continue your MongoDB journey.

    Troubleshooting Tips

     Ensure MongoDB is running before accessing it through the shell.


     Check your firewall settings if you have connection issues.
